"The Montfort Academy is one of America's 50 best Catholic high schools, as ranked by the Cardinal Newman Society. The school's motto is "Seek Wisdom, Practice Virtue, and Keep the Faith." The Montfort Academy brings back to the classroom subjects that have all but disappeared from the typical high school classroom. 100% of graduates go on to college."

"For those interested, they should check out the number of National Merit Recognition winners that Montfort has had over the past 2 years. I believe that Montfort has had 5 winners in two years. Given the small size of the school, this is a remarkable accomplishment. I think the commendations are supposed to yield about 4%, and Montfort is way, way over that. The school will be in the Fleetwood section of Mount Vernon in September, 2013. It's a beautiful school in a beautiful section, and probably less than 10 minutes from the Metro-North."

"Montfort is not for everyone. Only those who want a great education, feel no pressures like being bullying or outcast. The students at Montfort are accepting of each other, there is no cliques or exclusions. If you wish to be in a friendly enviornment where real learning occurs this is the best choice n the area. Teachers are a blessing, student body is respectful and they do not put with teenage attitude or apathy. Being small is a good thing, kids don't get lost in a numbers game."

"The Montfort Academy is a growing school, which means its current student body is small, but there are many reasons that students and their parents should choose Montfort over traditional public or private schools. 1. Classical education. The Montfort Academy offers a challenging course of study that encourages students to think, not just regurgitate facts for tests. Students are exposed to the great books and great philosophers that have shaped society from antiquity to today -- and they are encouraged to understand and evaluate the ideas and their impact. 2. Exceptional faculty. The faculty at Montfort is well educated in their subject matter -- some have Ph.D.s -- and they encourage discussion and thoughtful, respectful disagreement. They truly care about the students as individuals and seem to know each student's strengths and weaknesses, and, likewise, the students enjoy and care about the faculty. 3. Kind, friendly student body. Students at Montfort seem to miss out on the sturm und drang of adolescent drama, which is fantastic. They are by and large respectful of one another, kind to each other, and genuinely understanding of the personal foibles of their classmates."

"This is a growing school, and the administration, faculty, students, and parents are great. I love the educational philosophy of a classical curriculum, and I love the commitment to teaching Catholic faith."
